Hi Sufie5139
Well, a Neurosurgeon put my stimulator in and my Orthosurgeon took it out, when he did my 7th back surgery. I would have went to him in the first place, if my husband had of been well, but he had brain and lung cancer. Thats why I went to a surgeon that lived closer to my home. I never wanted the Spinal stim anyway, because it contained metel wires. I was in misery from day 1 and lived with it for almost 1 year.
The only advice I can give, is you will just have to find a surgeon that is willing to take it out in the first place. The one that took mine out, was already my regular surgeon. It wasn't so simple tho. He ordered a Discogram that just put me in misery showing him I already needed another surgery. I was determined to get up the same day of surgery and do my best the fight this pain. It has worked pretty good for me this way. I do have to keep a positive attiude. I'm not saying this would work for everybody, but it has worked good for me. I hope the best of luck for you!
